What concerts have your kids dragged you to?

I don't beleive the music itself is going to bother me as Systym of a Down definitely has a unique sound...like metal meets an opera voice or something.

My dragged comment was more about mosh pits and left handed smokes ect....and trying to keep them away from both.
I am in tune with most of the younger generations music...and my boy just got a Gibson SG and a Marshall amp for his 13th birthday....same guitar that....you guessed it Systym of a down uses.
I can remember being a Black Sabbath ect fan when I was his age and my parents put up with it and much more.
Just wish I would have got a Gibson electric instead of a crappy used Yamaha classical guitar....lol
I see that some of you have endured much worse as far as being dragged to something you most likely would not have gone to....amusing responses for sure.

As much as I hate to admit this....I actually enjoyed myself at this concert and Systym of a Down is a talented high energy band.......very high energy.

Never thought I would actually like this concert....but the decibels were a bit much.
The first two bands were not that great though.
Apparently...they were filming several songs for there new upcoming Systym of a Down release videos also.

One thing that took me by suprise is that they did an entire Dire Straits song...which was there only cover out of 28 songs.
Never thought I would here Dire Straights being played by a hardcore metal group.

To any of you youner or high spirited middle aged people who are already fans....don't miss this band if it comes your way imo.

What Dire Straits song was it? Glad to see you had a good time, I belive the second album comes out soon. "Hypnotize" or is it already out?

Took my daugther to a couple of Dylan shows (she was 14 for our first one) and now she drags ME to them!

Doors -Washington Hilton - Hendrix, Ambassador Theatre, Washington.

He was an accomplished pianist, organist and choir director. He was pretty open to new music.
He really liked the Doors and at the end of one of the Hendrix shows, stood on a chair to watch Jimi burn his guitar.

So, if you think taking your kids to some lame rock concert is a bore - think of it this way:

Tickets to concert - $300
Take out Pizza - $50.00

Memories for kids? Priceless. OTOH - don't think there is any new music on the level of Doors or Hendrix.

I'll never forget those shows or my father's efforts - at the Doors show, he sat four rows behind my sister and me so he wouldn't embarass us but could keep an eye on us. At the Hendrix show, my sister didn't attend and dad stayed with me because there was no where else to go.
